First visit was lovely. We had a view over the river and bridge. Serving staff were friendly and chatty. The food was fresh and tasty. The cherry and almond scone was to die for (and i bake) light and fluffy will be returning to try another! A lovely independent tearoom much nicer than a high priced coffee shed over the road.
Lovely traditional style tea room overlooking the river. Staff were friendly and attentive. Easy parking and a nice walk over the river afterwards.
This place is amazing. We went today as a family and we often struggle with places due to our youngest being autistic. They were fantastic. When we couldn't get him out of the car, the lady got games out and asked if she could do anything to help. They went above and beyond to make us all feel settled and was a brilliant atmosphere. It's absolutely beautiful inside and the views of the river is lovely. The food was fantastic, as well as an actual decent cup of coffee. We will 100% be back and will recommend this to other families especially with it being disability friendly. Thank you again for a wonderful experience.
Visited here Saturday with my sister and children, we took are mum for a birthday treat. We had afternoon tea, and the girls had the children's platter. Staff were friendly, and the food was lovely. would definitely recommend x
I enjoyed a nice sausage sandwich for breakfast at the Tearooms whilst watching the water in the river flow by. Pleasant place for breakfast and a coffee; staff friendly.
